A federal judge said on Wednesday that she would temporarily hire the new restrictions of President Donald Trump in relation to the Perkins Coie law firm, which Hillary Clinton represented for the presidency during her failing offer in 2016.

In an executive order on March 6, Trump indicated the federal authorities to terminate contracts with Perkins Coie, provided that this is permissible in order to limit the approximately 1,200 law firms access to federal buildings and federal employees and to stop the security checks for employees of the company. The declaration claimed that the order that the law firm Fusion -GPS had hired to compile the dossier of information that Trump was critical, while it represented Clinton, and that it discriminated against the breed in the event of settings.

Judge Beryl Howell said at a hearing on Wednesday that she would enact a temporary injunction to block Trump’s command while the company’s lawsuit is challenging her.

In his lawsuit, the Trump company accused the company to destroy it on the basis of a “tiny splinter” of his work.

“The order is not just an attempt to limit or weaken Perkin’s Coie. Your goal is to destroy the company,” said the company in a submission. “Unless reserved, the order in this goal can realistically succeed within days, based on the weight of the federal pressure that is used against the company’s customers.”

The company also warned of far -reaching potential consequences if the order remains.

“By punishing a law firm for your lawyer on behalf of clients that the President distributes, the executive regulation is said to have a frightening effect that extends far beyond Perkin’s Coie,” wrote the law firm in her application for a temporary start.
